Faculty of Law and Political Sciences, University Santiago of Cali - The image of the flag, shown
without comments on the aforementioned website, is a bit
problematic. The flag is made of three horizontal stripes,
blue-white-green, and a vertical pink stripe is placed along the
hoist. The overall proportion of the image is 100:222, but
excluding the vertical stripe, we have a 1:2 flag! The colours
seem also to be weird, especially the pink, but they are derived
from the University shield, which is shown with a blue field, a
green border and pink writings.

Escuela Normal Superior Santiago de Tunja, located in Tunja, Department of
Boyacá, dates back to Escuela Normal Nacional de Varones de Tunja, founded in
1870. This was part of a national program of refoundation of the Normal Schools
in the states' capitals, managed by the first German Mission in Colombia.
Classes started on 22 September 1872. In 1925, the institute adopted the "New
School" model, promoted by Rafael Bernal Jiménez in the Department of Boyacá
following a conference given by the educationalist Ovidio Decroly in Boyacá. The
reformed institute was the cradle of the Faculties of Educational Sciences
founded in Bogotá and Tunja, for women and men, respectively, part of the
Educational and Technological University of Colombia. Since then, Escuela Normal
Superior Santiago de Tunja has been an annex of the University. The institute
caters today 3,500 alumni scattered over three seats (Central, Jardín Infantil
and Parque Pinzón).
The flag of Escuela Normal Superior Santiago de Tunja is shown on a photo
available on the institute's website as horizontally divided
red-blue-white-blue-red (1:1:2:1:1). Blue means knowledge, white means purity
and joy, red means watch. Oddly enough, a drawing shown just above the photo
pictures the flag as horizontally divided blue-white-red (1:1:1, proportions
stated in the companion text), the white stripe being charged with the black
letters "E.N.S.S.T.".

"Institución Educativa Departamental 'Santiago
Pérez'", based at Zipaquirá, Department of Cundinamraca,
was recognized on 29 September 1975, as "Colegio
Departamental 'Santiago Pérez'", by the Department of
Cundinamarca (Decree No. 31054); classes started on 1 February
1976. The current institute was formed on 30 September 2002
(Decree No. 3395) by the merging of "Colegio Departamental
'Santiago Pérez'", "Jardín Infantil 'Carrusel'"
and "Colegio Básico Portachuelo"
The flag of the institute, according to photos taken in 2008 and
the description available on the website of the institute, is
horizontally divided light blue-yellow-red (1:2:1) with the
emblem of the institute in the middle of the yellow stripe.
The flag and arms of the institute were approved by the Rector on
5 August 1976 - but the flag is subsequently said to have been
designed by teacher Fabio Restrepo Parra in 1977!
The colours are the same as on the flags of Colombia and
Cundinamarca. Blue represents the celeste heavens and the
crystalline waters of Zipaquirá. Yellow represents the resources
of the soil, as gold mined by the first inhabitants and local,
modern agriculture based on wheat cropping. Red represents the
"torrents of blood" shed by the local martyrs for
peace, independence and liberty.
The emblem of the institute is circular, emerald green to
represent the aspirations of the students and of the Colombian
youth and the natural resources of the mountains surrounding the
valleys of Zipaquirá, Ubaté and Chiquinquirá (that is,
emeralds). The interlaced letters "C",
"S", "P" and "Z" recall the name of
the institute "Colegio Santiago Perez Zipaquirá". The
white "Z" symbolizes the colonial, salt-mining town of
Zipaquirá. The extreme parts of the letters mark the four main
compass directions. The white ring surrounding the emblem
represents candor and purity of the inhabitants of Zipaquirá and
innocence of the students. "DPTO. DE CUNDINAMARCA" is
written in golden letters on the ring.
This is how the emblem appears on the flag photographed in 2008,
see for instance here.
The symbols'
page on the website of the institute shows three different
representations of the emblem, none of which exactly matches the
emblem actually used on the flag, and a graphic of the flag with
the most recent emblem, with letters "I",
"S", "P" and"Z" reflecting the new
name of the institute and the name of the department dropped from
the border. See also photo
gallery.

"Colegio del Santo Ángel" was founded in 1958 in
Bogotá by the Congregation of the Sisters of the Guardian Angel.
Founded in
1839 in Quillan (Languedoc, France) by Father Louis Antoine
Ormières and Mother Saint Pascal Lavrilloux, the congregation
was recognized by Napoléon III in 1852 and by Pope Leo XIII in
1902. Following the expelling of the religious congregations from
France in the early 20th century, most sisters relocated to
Spain, where they were known as the "French Sisters".
Their first presence in South America was in Venezuela, in 1950.

The flag of the institute, as shown graphically and described on
the website
of the institute, is white with the emblem of the institute
in the middle.
White represents purity, liberty and transparency.
The emblem of the institute shows a guardian angel
guiding a child about to cross a bridge over a brook in a forest
landscape. The scene is placed over a red cross bordered in
yellow and surmounted by a yellow Latin cross. The emblem is
inscribed in a white ring bearing the black writings
"COLEGIO DEL SANTO ÁNGEL / 1839 / BOGOTÁ / 1958".
1839 and 1958 are the foundation years of the congregation and of
the institute, respectively. Red and white represent love and
purity.
